About This Program ✦
Highway Robbery is a programme presented in the format of an episode. It falls under the umbrella of a television series, offering a self‑contained story that fits within the broader catalogue of the show. The piece is listed simply as an episode, without any additional classification beyond its programme status. The episode follows Mark and Digger as they try to broaden their operations into Memphis. Their plans run into trouble when the bootlegger they rely on is robbed, putting the expansion on hold. The robbery not only threatens their supply chain but also forces the duo to reassess how they’ll keep the venture moving forward. Meanwhile, Tickle decides to open a new restaurant, using it as a front for a covert distribution hub. The establishment serves a dual purpose: it provides a legitimate business front while also acting as a hidden centre for moving shine. This secret operation runs alongside the public-facing eatery, adding another layer to the characters’ illicit activities. These intertwined developments create a series of setbacks and new opportunities for the group. Mark and Digger must cope with the loss of their bootlegger’s goods, while Tickle’s dual‑purpose venue offers a fresh avenue for handling the shine. The episode therefore balances the complications of a botched robbery with the launch of a concealed distribution point.
